SLO P-JAR COVER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 397,425, dated February 5, 1889.

Application filed November l5, 1888. Serial No. 290,905. (No model.)

To @El whom t may concern/,-

Be it known that l, FREDERICK .I-IABEEnAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented n w and useful Improvements in Slop Jars or Vessels, of' which the` follow ing is a specification..

This invention has for its object to provide a slop jar or vessel with a top or cover which will sit iirlnly on the jar, and at the saine time allow the fiuid to be poured into the j'ar with out the risk of splashing or running over, as setfcrth in the following specification and claim, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- K Figure 'l is a vertical section of a jar and cover. Fig. 2 is a side elevation oi' a cover. Fig. is a plan view of a cover.

Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.

In the drawings, the letter A indicates a bucket, vessel, or jar having a handle or bail, G. The top or cover has a bottoni,B, pro vided with a hole at C, The supportinglflange E enables the bottom to rest on the top of the vessel A. Belowthe ilange is a verti# cally-arranged rim portion, H, of the cover, made to snugly fit the side o'i' the vessel or jar, so that said top will not be able to move laterally and will sit firmly on the jar. From the upper side of the flange E rises a vertically-arranged rim portion, F, having an annular rim, D, that extends inwardly and then downwardly to provide the internal pendent flange, D ,which overhangs the bottom wall, B. By providing the rim D on the rim portion F with the internalA pendent annular ange, D', I avoid spilling or splashing, since when liuid is poured violently onto the bottoni B said fluid has its tendency to overiiow first checked by striking against the vertical por tion F, and then said fluid is caught by the inWardly-overhanging rim D and pendent AIiange D', and is thrown back onto the bottoni. B, whence it passes through the opening at() into the jar.

As seen in the drawings, the bottom B, vertically-arranged rim portion H, flange E, rim portion F, inwardly-proj eeting rim D, and internal pendent flange, D', can be made or stamped from one piece of metal, whereby a cheap and strong article is obtained.

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

A slop-jar cover consising of the centrally apertured bottom wall, B, the vertical rim portion H, to closely t the internal surface of a jar-mouth, the lateral iiange E, to rest on the jar, and the vertical rim portion F, having the inwardly-projecting rim D, extended down ward to form the internal annular pendent flange, D', overhanging the bottom wall, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal in the presence of two subscribing winesses.
